lately when i ride, if i go over bumps that kinda throw the bike side to side a loud..... noise comes from the rear end and i think its comin from were the swingarm attaches to the frame. any ideas as to what it could be?

 

worn swingarm bushings

 

Sounds can travel, so it is often hard to tell exactly where it comes from. I would put a crate under the middle of the frame so the rear end is off the ground, then shake everything on the back end real good and see what you can find. Might be a shock or shock mount, the swingarm, play in the hubs, play in the axle, etc.

 

thanks reconranger, put it up on some cinder blocks, theres no bushing in the top of the front right shock. and theres a piece of what looks like bushing (i hope)..... so im gonna take it to the honda shop here soon


thanks
